For centuries, the united kingdoms of Virea, Galdrith, and Bovarre were held together under the iron will of the Great King Jotiz, a war hero who became their ruler, whose vision of unity forged an uneasy peace. Through his charisma and discipline, he destroyed rebellions, silenced dissent, and bound the kingdoms under one banner.   But his death shattered the fragile harmony. Old grudges, fight for power, and the greed of ambitious lords turned his dream of unity into a nightmare of war. Now, the once-mighty alliance lies in ruins, its fields soaked with the blood of countless battles.   In this chaos walks the Ashen Scavenger, an outcast named Rat. His grim task is to strip the battlefields of their dead, scavenging armor, weapons, and trinkets for survival. Yet his work is no ordinary looting – he bears a cursed gift. When he touches the fallen, he is pulled into their final moments, reliving their pain, their memories, and the secrets they carried to the grave. The dead speak to him, whispering tales of betrayal, forbidden love, and vengeance.   As he wanders the ashen fields, piecing together the tales of the fallen, the scavenger begins to confront his own place in this fractured world. Amid the ghosts of the dead, he searches not for glory or salvation, but for meaning in the silence they leave behind.
